(c) The question of establishment of a district shall be based upon the majority of votes cast on the question by the voters of the proposed territory determined as follows:
- (1) Where the proposed territory does not include a municipality or any portion of a municipality, then the majority of all the votes cast upon the question shall determine establishment.
- (2) Where the proposed territory does include a municipality or any portion of a municipality, then the votes cast shall be divided into 2 lots. The votes cast within the municipalities shall be counted together, and the votes cast outside of the municipalities shall be counted together, and the question must carry in each group in order to establish the district. If there are 2 or more municipalities within the proposed territory, and the question of establishment carries in both groups as provided in this paragraph but the votes cast in one municipality having its own tax supported library are against establishment of the district, then the district shall be deemed established, but the dissenting municipality with its own tax supported library shall be excluded from the territory of the district.
- (3) Where the proposed territory includes a township having its own tax supported library and the question of establishment carries in all areas as provided in paragraph (2), the township votes on the question shall also be counted separately, and if the votes cast within the township with its own tax supported library are against establishment, then the dissenting township shall be excluded from the territory of the district.
